Situated in the heart of Derbyshire
and just two miles South of the
Peak District National Park boundary, the traditional market
town of Wirksworth makes a perfect base for discovering the
thriving towns, sleepy villages and dramatic beauty of this area.
We have plenty of lovely self-catering cottages in Wirksworth and
the surrounding area to choose from, so you are sure to find
somewhere you will love.
The market town is a fascinating place to explore for lovers of
industrial heritage. Although the town can trace its origins to the
Doomsday Book, it thrived during the 17th and
18th centuries and was the centre of the English Lead
Mining Industry during this period. This history is evident in many
of the buildings around the town and can be discovered in more
detail at the numerous heritage sites in the area, so you won't
struggle for
things to do in Wirksworth.
